    Problems with INDEX, MATCH, MATCH returning incorrect values

    Hi Everyone,

    I have several hundred blinds to price and have been given a pricing grid to work from, so I would like to enter the sizes in Columns B and C and have the correct price returned in Column C. I have tried many formula's but either get nothing or sometimes correct answers or incorrect answers. In the attached file I have entered the formula that gives me the nearest results but I need something that results in an exact match or the next value up. I would be grateful if someone could point me in the right direction.

    Many thanks

    Paul

    The problem is the grid. Change it to this:

    Excel 2016 (Windows) 32 bit
    H
    I
    J
    K
    L
    M
    2
    		 Width
    3
    		 Dims

    135.00
    145.00
    155.00
    165.00
    Sheet: Sheet1

    Then use this simpler formula:

    =INDEX($I$4:$M$12,MATCH(C3,$H$4:$H$12,1),MATCH(B3,$I$3:$M$3,1))
